thebratqueenGot my golden Harry Potter ticket! I showed up at Borders a half hour before the party started and they were already handing out numbers. I'm #125 which means I'll be in the third group of people called. It also means that I can wait out the next couple of hours at home. Wooo!!
Not that I don't love the fannish experience of the midnight parties, and I geniunely do like seeing the kids play games and get into it, but that's why I'll go back at 11. That'll give me an hour to hang out and chill and wait for the line to start, just in case they start the line early. 3 hours of that was doable if I had to, but since I don't have to I'd much rather relax and work on my grandmother's scarf at home while catching up on my Tivo and not being stressed out by all the people freaking out around me. Plus at my house I don't have to sit on the floor while I knit ;)

versailles_rose? I was able to get powdered buttermilk at the A&P. Go fig. I'll give it a whirl tomorrow when I make the cornmeal biscuits again. (Another advantage of waiting at home is that I can premake the quiche so that tomorrow I can just heat it up).
Also tonight I have learned that it is not the smartest idea to go to the bathroom in the dark when you have a small black cat who likes to drink out of the toilet. Though I imagine Luna and I had very similar looks on our faces when I nearly sat down on her. Ahem.
